THURSDAY'S event relating to the dedica
tion of the Weyerhaeuser Klamath tree
farm marked a new high in a practical public
f-s relations program for the lum-
jaj--, ber industry here.
f7T7 Not often have men In the
r.;' m . ... - ....
lumber industry wen mo
local public into their confi
dence as was done in the series
of outstanding talks presented
Thursday evening.
J. P. Weyerhaeuser, who
bears a name big in the his
tory of lumbering, told of the
problems and aspirations ot
the industry. He outlined what
is being done in the way of research looking
to wider uses of forest products, and how this
research is being translated into more Intensive
manufacturing practices (and more jobs).
i At this Juncture, Mr. Weyerhaeuser had a
concrete example for his audience the dis
closure that a Pres-to-log plant, for the manu
facture of a fuel product from waste, is nearing
completion at the Weyerhaeuser mill here.
, He told how federal taxes take aa high as 81
per cent of the final dollar of earnings, and how
this sort of thing, continued, can stifle research
and progress. But he said Weyerhaeuser is
basing its policies upon an expectation of a re
turn to endurable taxes and business freedom
commensurate with the responsibilities it is
Willing to assume.
; One such responsibility is the conservation of
resources that will mean indefinite maintenance
of operations. That" is of vital economic im
portance to the Klamath community.
j This plain language did much, we believe,
te clarify the whole situation for the general
public. The effects are certain to redound to
the good of the Industry.
SIMILARLY, the statement of Manager Ralph
Macartney ot the Klamath operation did
much to take the mystery out ot the company'
policies so far as Mr. Average Citizen is con
cerned.
Mr. Macartney told how and why the com
pany has held on to cut-over lands Instead ot
letting them go back for taxes as has been
done all too often in lumbering communities.
He described the present-day methods calling
for selective cutting, seed trees, restocking,
beetle control cutting, employment of a full-time
forester and staff. These things are done at
great expense, he said, in order to insure an
all-time supply of raw materials for a perman
ent wood-working industry in Klamath Falls.
Ha said that in the Klamath basin, Man and
Nature, working together, can do better than
the average in producing second growth pine.
He admitted that the present cut is much
greater than the natural growth. . When the
pressure of cutting for war needs 1 over, a
balance will be sought between harvest and
crop.
At first blush, this might indicate a sub
stantial decrease in lumber industry payroll.
But the war ha demonstrated the vital national
importance of wood, and has called it into many
new uses. Private and public laboratories are
searching for the new value in western pines.
Mr. Macartney asked u to have faith In the
chemist' test tube and the engineer' tilde rule.
"Though fewer logs will be cut around Klam
ath in the future, undoubtedly more will be
done to such logs a are taken," he said.
"OUR COMPANY EXPECTS TO MAINTAIN
A SUBSTANTIAL PAYROLL INDEFINITELY."
That was a story that needed to be told,
and It needed to be told by the men who told
it Thursday night.
It did a lot for community morale. We hope
it opened a new chapter In the public relations
of the whole Industry here.

MALLOH
News Behind the News
By PAUL MALLOH
WASHINGTON, Aug. 0 The common sup
position ot the man in the street here is
. that Germany will crack sometime before
Christmas and, indeed, some
expect to read the news each
time they pick up a paper,
but it is not as simple a
that. . . . 7" '
The necessities ot military
secrecy about strategy, both
on the nazi side and ours, have
somewhat hindered a clear
popular understanding of the
I precise situation.
The German general staff
' now knows the war is lost.
There can be no doubt of that In any military
rnind. Whatever Hitler and the nazi politicians
rday hope, they are fully advised that defeat
is, inevitable.
: Their strategy has been to fight determined
but hopeless delaying actions, first in Tunisia,
then in Sicily, possibly next across northern
Italy, and so on back. - These -actions are de
signed to bring about a limited defeat instead
of unconditional surrender.
It is logical to expect that they will attempt
in the -end to throw themselves into our pro
tective custody and may even eventually in
vite us to . protect them against bolshevism,
which they will falsely claim was all they
were fighting anyway.
a
Their Only Chance
THEIK only hope, and apparent purpose, is
to create a popular demand for peace in
this country by the determined fervor of their
last stand resistance.' 'They have failed repeat
edly to get such a situation, and will continue
to fail, but, , as their only chance lies along
that line, ihey' mustrbe expected to pursue it
as long as. they, are -able.
Our strategy, on the other hand, is to main
tain the greatest possible military pressure and
hope for an.: internal German break.
The Roosevelt-Churchill scheme of war ap
parently calls for the devastation of two or
three more cities on the scale with which Ham
burg was reduced to ruins. That might possibly
bring the break.
Nothing has ever been conquered by air
bombardment in this war except the tiny island
of Pantelleria. True also, Britain survived the
blitz. It would probably take years of bom
bardment for us to reduce every German city
to ash, but the comparison and prospects
are not convincing point.
Tha total bomb loads we have dropped on
Hamburg are three or four time aa heavy a
the greatest German bomb load dropped on
London. Approximately 2300 ton hit Ham
burg in a single raid, while the heaviest Ger
man load on London was 800 to 700 tons.
Our devastation, therefore, can be computed
roughly a four times as great a what hap
pened to the British capital. Our losses have
been unofficially, computed at about four per
cent, which not only makes the raid practical,
but we can continue to take these losses day
after day for month or years because we have
unlimited air resources.
This is an air war. Less than 10 division
of American troop have been in actual, front
line fighting, only five (under 78,000 men) in
Sicily.
It may be" too much to say that we have
had more men in combat in tha air than on
land because a bomber crew is composed of only
10 men, but certainly as many men of the en
forces have been involved if you count ground
crews. .
It is already apparent even to the Germans
that they cannot hope to meet u on this air
front, or even adequately defend themselves
Our pressure will increase, their resistance will
diminish.
Uncertain Factor
BUT to say they will break this month or this
year call for calculation ot an Internal
nazi factor we cannot possibly gauge accurately.
Their known military strength in Russia sug
gests they might possibly stand another winter
without retreat to Poland or even to the
Dnieper. At any rate, all agree they can rea
sonably be expected to stand on some line
through the cold month on that eastern land
front.
It looks like a good time for us to Invade
the Balkans now that the Italian garrison divis
ions are being withdrawn to Italy, but we must
first either reconquer Crete, or Turkey must
declare war on our side to open the way. In
either event, a blow on that front must take
time for preparation.
All we can do is maintain the utmost pitch
of war pressure through air bombardment, by
cautiou and relentless pursuance of the Italian
Invasion and by maintenance of a constant
threat of a new second front upon the north
western European coast, and through the
Balkans.

Dr. Masters' Health Column
Many Bad Breath Causes
Are of Organic Nature
By DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS
The American public has been
made acutely conscious of bad
breath. Personal hygiene of all
sorts has been the obsession of
the American scene, and popu
lar standards of cleanliness and
good taste have demanded the
minimum of offense from hali
tosis. In tact, the public knows
much more about the effect of
bad breath on economics and
romance than it knows about
the cause or cure of the symp
tom. Halitosis is not due to dis
turbances in the stomach or
colon. The circular muscle that
marks the junction of the
esophagus with the stomach,
and the fact that the walls of
the esophagus are In contact
with one another, prevent the
regurgitation of fluids or gases.
Nor does cleansing the mouth
always relieve halitosis, because
some odors may have their or
igin in the respiratory tract and
be carried through the mouth
or nose with exhaled air.
VARIOUS CAUSES
The breath may become of
fensively laden with the odor
of garlic or onions, because the
volatile oils that these vege
tables contain will adhere to
the surfaces within the mouth
until they are dissipated by the
air that passes.
Infections in the lungs or
bronchi may be associated with
bacterial decomposition of exu
date or even lung tissue, with
a resulting foul odor, which is
discharged by the expired air.
Infection in the nose, throat
or tonsils associated with a mu
copurulent discharge having an
unpleasant odor may impart
thl ame odor to the breath.
Disease of the gum such as
pyorrhea, or Vincent's infection,
the so-called "trench mouth," is
also the source of odors which
may pass off in the breath.
Dental carles or defects allow
food to stagnate In the mouth,
and with decomposition offen
sive odors are involved. Breath
ing through the mouth, especial
ly while one is asleep, permits
the mucous and food adhering
to the rough surface of the
tongue, between the teeth, or
in the pharnyx, to become dry
and decompose with an unsa
vory taste as well as bad breath.
MOUTH-WASH NO CURE
In the presence of fever and
certain disturbances in the
body-chemistry, such as uremia
or the acid intoxication caused
by uncontrolled diabetes, the
breath is characteristically taint
ed. The use of tobacco or the
Ingestion of alcoholic beverages
impart the odors of these sub
stances to the breath.
It is obvious, then, that a
simple mouth-wash is not a
cure-all for halitosis. The actual
cause of bad breath must be
sought and eliminated. Even if
the trouble Is due to nothing
